I know of no one personally that's been successful or even attempted. It's certainly been mentioned before.
The mast-jacket is very different and the addition of SIR with '90+ would make a direct fit impossible. If a person didn't mind loosing SIR and had 1 of each 'side by side' you could investigate swapping the shrouds and the upper column components,

Looks like I have to be the test guinea pig if I want it. It is interesting that the 84-89 cars telescopic columns do not tend to get loose pivot pins like the 90-96 cars do. At least you don't hear about problems as much for the early cars. Thank you for the response.

1. wiring
2. Any mechanical differences that must be addressed
Obviously I will have the donor column and my cars column side by side on a bench, any and all insight, road blocks, specific additional parts I need prior to doing the swap, any.. "if I knew then what I know now I would have done that, or not done this etc. thanks man, really appreciate any insights you have on the swap.
